Appendix 8 Derry City and Strabane District Council Planning Appendix 8 Derry City and Strabane District Council Planning Committee Report COMMITTEE DATE: 29 November 2017 APPLICATION No: LA11/2017/0130/F APPLICATION TYPE: Full PROPOSAL: Proposed retention of 225Kw wind turbine as installed, with a 30M tower and 29M Rotor Diameter and associated switch room in substitution of previous approval J/2011/0358/F for a 250Kw wind turbine with 30M tower and 30M Rotor Diameter LOCATION: Approximately 380M North West of 35 Garvetagh Road, Garvetagh, Castlederg accessing onto Silverhill Road APPLICANT: BR Energy Ltd, 23 Strahulter Road, Newtownstewart BT78 4ED AGENT: McKernaghan Architectural Service Ltd, 82 Ecclesville Road, Fintona ADVERTISEMENT: 16/2/2017 STATUTORY EXPIRY: 2/3/2017 RECOMMENDATION: Approve REASON FOR PRESENTATION TO COMMITTEE: Wind turbine All planning application forms, drawings, letters etc. relating to this planning application are available to view on www.planningni.gov.uk 1. Description of Proposed Development Proposed retention of 225Kw wind turbine as installed, with a 30M tower and 29M Rotor Diameter and associated switch room in substitution of previous approval J/2011/0358 for a 250Kw wind turbine with 30M tower and 30M Rotor Diameter. 2. EIA Determination The proposed development is within the scope of Schedule 2 - 3 (J) of the Planning (Environmental Impact Assessment) Regulations (NI) 2015 as the hub height of the proposed turbine exceeds 15 metres. Consequently, an environmental determination was carried out and the Council determined that the planning application did not need to be accompanied by an Environmental Statement. 3. Site and Surrounding Area The site is located in the north western corner of a field approx. 410m back from the public road. The site has no defined boundaries and is accessed via an existing concrete farm lane. The site lies in LCA 20 Derg Valley which is located in the open countryside outside the development limits of any settlement defined in the Strabane Area Plan 1986 – 2001. Appendix 8 The site is not located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. However, assessment of the visual impact of wind energy development is not restricted to designated landscapes. Policy RE1 states that the supplementary planning guidance 'Wind Energy Development in Northern Ireland’s Landscape’s' will be taken into account in assessing all wind turbine proposals. Each landscape has a different capacity for accommodating wind energy development. The area generally is of rolling fields with modest boundaries. Figure 1: Site location map Figure 2: Wind turbine 4. Site Constraints There are no site specific constraints. 5. Neighbour Notification Report There are no neighbours or occupied premises within 250 metres. Appendix 8 6. Relevant Site History Figure 2: Local wind turbine planning history J/2010/0452/F Proposed 225 KW Wind Turbine (Hub Height 31m) to serve dwelling & farm with spillage to grid 350m West of 35 Garvetagh Road, Castlederg. Permission refused 28.03.2011 due to unacceptable visual impact. J/2011/0358/F Proposed 250kw wind turbine, height of 30m to generate electricity for export to the grid on lands approx 825m SW of 32 Silverhill Road, , Garvetagh, Castlederg. Approved 4 September 2012. The permission expired on 4th September 2017 without being implemented and the current application is in substitution of this permitted turbine. J/2013/0086/F Proposed 225kw wind turbine (hub height 30m) to serve dwelling and farm with spillage to grid on lands 250m West of 35 Garvetagh Road, Castlederg. Refused permission 15 April 2016 as it had not been demonstrated that noise would not detrimentally impact residential amenity. An appeal to the Planning Appeals Commission was withdrawn 13 December 2016. J/2014/0325/F 40m hub wind turbine approx 825m SW of 32 Silverhill Road, Garvetagh, Castlederg. Permission refused 23.11.2015 due to unacceptable visual impact and noise. 7. Policy Framework The Strabane Area Plan 1986-2001 Regional Development Strategy for Northern Ireland Strategic Planning Policy Statement for Northern Ireland Appendix 8 PPS 21: Sustainable Development in the Countryside, Policy CTY1 Planning Policy Statement 18: Renewable Energy, Policy RE 1-Renewable Energy Development The Best Practice Guidance to PPS 18 - Renewable Energy Supplementary Guidance “Wind Energy Development in Northern Ireland’s Landscapes” Planning Policy Statement 3 : Access, Movement and Parking 8. Consultee Responses Environmental Health assessed the noise report that accompanied this application and found the noise from the wind turbine will not breach the ETSU-R-97 noise limits at local receptors. They provided 7 conditions dealing with the "construction" and monitoring of noise output. Belfast International Airport advised that the proposal does not conflict with airport safeguarding criteria but advised that the turbine should have a red warning light. City of Derry Airport - no objections National Air Traffic Services - no safeguarding objections Civil Aviation Authority -no objection Transportni - no objections Arqiva Services Ltd had no objection Offcom - no objection UK Crown bodies LMS - No objection UK Crown bodies DIO Safeguarding - no objection. 9. Representations No letters of support or objection have been received. 10. Planning Assessment, including Other Material Considerations Section 6 (4) of The Planning Act (Northern Ireland) 2011 requires the Council to make planning decisions in accordance with the local development plan, unless material considerations indicate otherwise. The site lies in the open countryside outside the development limits of any settlement defined in the Strabane Area Plan 1986 – 2001. The site is not located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The SPPS and Policy RE 1 of PPS 18 are both supportive of projects for renewable energy provided they will not result in any unacceptable adverse impacts with regards to the following criteria: Appendix 8 Public safety, human health, or residential amenity It is unlikely the development will pose a public safety issue. The applicant has submitted a noise impact assessment with regards to potential noise levels associated with the development and impact on nearby residential properties. Environmental Health are satisfied that the turbine will not cause unreasonable disturbance subject to the conditions as set out in section 12. No third party objections have been received to date. It is therefore considered that the development will not have an unacceptable adverse impact upon the residential amenity of nearby properties in terms of noise. The application was accompanied by a statement from the developer on the potential for shadow flicker on receptors in the area and concluded that the affected area would be 10 times the rotor diameter of the wind turbine for 130 degrees either side of north. The rotor diameter is 29.0m therefore the affected area would be 290m. There are no dwellings within that area (see figure 3 below). Figure 3: Shadow Flicker Diagram. There are no impacted properties within the hatched area. Visual amenity and landscape character The site is located in the southern section of LCA 20 Derg Valley as identified in the document Wind Energy Development in Northern Ireland’s Landscapes. The supplementary guidance identifies LCA 20 Derg Valley as having an overall high to medium sensitivity. It describes the local landform as broad valley enclosed by an undulating landscape of rounded hills which provide important skylines. The majority of these hills have a relatively low elevation and some have a distinctive form providing local landmarks. It states that the height of the hills are likely to be a key constraint on turbine size, as many turbines would be out of scale with these low hills. The location, siting, layout and design considerations recommend that care is taken to avoid adverse impacts upon locally important skylines and it is also recommended that turbine development Appendix 8 reflects the relatively low elevation of the hills in this LCA and the presence of small landscape features. This is a retrospective application to retain a wind turbine as constructed. As a consequence the visual impact of this development is readily apparent. Whilst the Derg Valley LCA is characterised as having a medium to high sensitivity to wind energy development, in this case the application substitutes the approved position of the turbine with a location 130m to the southwest. Whilst the location approved under J/2011/0358/F is downslope of the location where the turbine has been erected, the erected turbine is located a sufficient distance from the crest of the hill that it does not dominate its landscape setting nor does it appear out of scale in this location. The size of the erected turbine reflects that of the previously approved turbine; the erected turbine is 30m to hub with reduced blade diameter of 29m. It is considered therefore that visual impact of this development is similar to than that of the approved wind turbine (J/2011/0358/F) (see figures 4, 5 and 6) and the scale of the turbine reflects the low elevation of Garvetagh Hill. The visual impact of the turbine has been also been assessed from a number of viewpoints as shown in figures 4, 5 and 6 and is considered acceptable. There are a number of consented single wind turbines and wind farms in the wider area, at distances ranging from 1.76km to 4.5km from the application site. At these distances they are considered to be sufficiently distant from the application turbine that cumulative visual impact is not considered to be an issue. Figure 4: View of the turbine 700m south-east at 43 Garvetagh Road Biodiversity, nature conservation or built heritage interests The site is located in the middle of an upland field in rough grazing and exceeds the 50m separation distance to any boundary; this being the distance suggested by NIEA as sufficient to ensure no impact on foraging bats. In considering the 2011 application NIEA visited the site and confirmed that the linear features against to the site are unsubstantial and have poor potential to be used by bats.

    Mainly Ulster families – “B” series – Smythe-Wood Newspaper Index Irish Genealogical Research Society Dr P Smythe-Wood’s Irish Newspaper Index Selected families, mainly from Ulster ‘SERIES B’ The late Dr Patrick Smythe-Wood presented a large collection of card indexes to the IGRS Library, reflecting his various interests, - the Irish in Canada, Ulster families, various professions etc. These include abstracts from various Irish Newspapers, including the Belfast Newsletter, which are printed below. Abstracts are included for all papers up to 1864, but excluding any entries in the Belfast Newsletter prior to 1801, as they are fully available online. Dr Smythe-Wood often found entries in several newspapers for the one event, & these will be shown as one entry below. Entries dealing with RIC Officers, Customs & Excise Officers, Coastguards, Prison Officers, & Irish families in Canada will be dealt with in separate files. In most cases, Dr Smythe-Wood has recorded the exact entry, but in some, marked thus *, the entries were adjusted into a database, so should be treated with more caution. There are further large card indexes of Miscellaneous notes on families which are not at present being digitised, but which often deal with the same families treated below.

    PARISH OF ARDSTRAW WEST AND CASTLEDERG St Mary’s, Dregish St Patrick’s, Castlederg St Francis of Assisi, Drumnabey REV PAUL FRASER PP, 16 CASTLEFIN ROAD, CASTLEDERG, CO TYRONE, BT81 7BT Tel: 028 816 71393 Email: [email protected] Parish Website: www.castledergparish.com SUNDAY 27 SEPTEMBER 2020 TWENTY-SIXTH SUNDAY ORDINARY TIME (YEAR A) In the Parable of the Two Sons that we hear today (Matthew 21:28-32), the saying with which we are all familiar, ‘actions speak louder than words’ is the core message of Jesus. In this parable, neither son does what he says he will do, but the first son then re-thinks his initial decision and goes to the vineyard, as asked by his father. The ability to change our mind is an essential element of all healthy relationships. A mind that is closed to change – for example, one that refuses to admit to mistakes, one that refuses to apologise and change ways – lacks the virtue of humility. It can destroy relationships. We think today of any relationships in our lives that remain fractious because of our inability to change our mind – perhaps our inability to admit to our own weaknesses and address them or our inability to drop a grudge or forget a wrongdoing. Act today: ‘The first to apologise is the bravest, the first to forgive is the strongest, the first to forget is the happiest’ SUNDAY MASSES: Vigil: Sat 6.00pm Castlederg.

  • Village Renewal Scheme
    Village Renewal Scheme Village Renewal Village Renewal is one of five schemes being delivered under the NI Rural Development Programme 2014-2020 by the Derry & Strabane Rural Partnership (LAG). The aim of the scheme is to provide capital support to develop collective and individual village initiatives that will enhance the role and function of villages, bring life back into the rural area and contribute to the creation of vibrant rural communities. The Partnership has agreed an allocation of £1,206,400 for the Village Renewal Scheme with targets for 15 village plans, 4 large capital projects and 8 small capital projects. The scheme can fund the following (with Council as applicant in partnership with the local community): WHAT VILLAGE RENEWAL SCHEME COVERS 1. Preparation of Village plans 2. Capital projects in village plans such as: o Gateway projects o Derelict and vacant site enhancement o Environmental improvements o Shop frontage enhancements o Conservation and upgrading of rural culture and heritage (natural and built) Village Renewal Scoping Study A programme of animation and scoping study was carried out between September 2016 and May 2017 to help shape and develop the Village Renewal scheme. The final scoping study report was approved by the LAG board in June 2017. The study included an audit of villages and existing village plans; consultation with local communities and other relevant stakeholders; development of criteria for selection of settlements for capital projects; and scoping of options for the overall approach to the delivery of the scheme and related recommendations. Cluster Village Plans The LAG board has agreed to progress 15 ‘Cluster’ Village Plans to cover all 49 settlements in the Council area, in line with the existing Local Community Plan DEA structures.
